while sleeping, we stay without food for at least 8 hours and our body gets in a catabolic stage...so it is important that before bed we give some protein to our body..but it is better that the protein is not fast absorbed but slowly absorbed so we have amino-acids through our body during the whole night and not the first 2-3 hours(that's how long takes for whey to be absorbed)...if your protein shake is with casein protein then it's ok..or you can better have some cottage cheese that also contains casein(slowly absorbed protein)...
Yes, The protein shake you are taking is diluted with water; therefore the more water you drink in a short succession to drinking your shake, the more diluted it becomes. Try waiting a little while after you drink your shake before drinking an excessive amount of water. - Tony
Protein shake is the building block in building muscles. People need an accurate plan by the trainer on how to use it. You usually eat it before and after the practice and also before going to bed at nights.

It is suggested that you take your protein shake before you eat anything. It is always better to give your body a high protein meal before you eat your regular food.
No, but it will help
You don't exactly need a protein shake before your workout. A protein shake is best taken right after you are finished with your workout. After your workout your muscles have begun to break down and the faster you take in some protein the faster your muscles will recover. I would only recommend taking protein at other times of the day if you are not recieving the approximate amount of protein you need through your diet.
The cost of a protein shake is approximately 4 dollars.
Its better after a workout but you can before also.
No, if you drink protein shakes and dont work out.. That protein will turn into fat. The reason people eat protein while working out is because they want that fat to turn into muscle. I suggest you workout while drinking protein shakes or dont drink the shakes at all.
Add vinegar and measure the protein precipitate. Mass of precipitate/mass of shake x100= % protein
The reason you do not get sore while you re drinking a protein shake is because it gives you the protein your body needs for your muscles to heal after a workout, therefore making you less or not sore.
They are just as effective as making your own protein shake at home.
